    I have three laptops with 2tb SSD each and wanted to replace them all with this 4tb. The price is fantastic because it very affordable. Though my laptops are 3x4 this 4x4 SSD works flawlessly. I'll use the replaced SSD as backups. I mainly bought these to increase space and store pictures from my camera. Worth the price and I'm surprised it doesn't run as hot as the Samsung SSDs

    This SSD is so fast that my download speeds for large files increased 15% to 900MBps and reduced game load times by 9% compared to other SSDs. It's setup as an external drive and I have it connected by usb-c. It is in Insignia's external M.2. enclosure.

    Switched from a Gen 3 to a Gen 4 with more space went from 1TB to 4TB let me tell you this thing is FAST you know when you first put data on your first NVME? That Speed boost was huge but this one was not Huge but you do notice a big diffrence so dont think a Gen 3 to Gen 4 upgrade is not worth the speed increase because I have seen it.

    I love this SSD. The read/write speed definitely makes a huge difference over the previous NVMe I had before. I use it as a primary drive on my new pc and it is blazing fast. I highly recommend this drive for anyone looking for a speed upgrade.

    Bestbuy was sold out for a few weeks and finally they got the item back in stock and still on sale. I replaced my Samsung 2tb pro series with the 4tb. The read and write was pretty similar. Definitely recommend it for your PS5

    One of the least expensive 4TB gen4 m.2's out there. Very close to "up to" read & write speeds advertised. Almost twice as fast as my gen 3 2TB brandX it replaced. Did I mention it's FAST! Glad I got one before going out of stock. Five year warranty rocks. First PNY product and am impressed. Crystal Disk read - 7,083 mb/s Crystal Disk Write - 6721 mb/s
